Itcl 4 requires Tcl 8.6.  If your requirements include support for
Tcl 8.5, then you must stick with Itcl 3 until those requirements
change. (Tcl 8.5.* development has shifted to preparations for its
End Of Life).

I recommend you get the latest Itcl 3 release available, which is
Itcl 3.4.3:

	https://sourceforge.net/projects/incrtcl/files/[Incr%20Tcl_Tk]-source/Itcl%203.4.3/

This release has the advantage of continuing to function as you upgrade
from Tcl 8.5 to Tcl 8.6.  Older releases had troubles with Tcl 8.6.

I also want to point out that the current release of Itcl 4 is 4.0.5,
which comes bundled with the current release of Tcl, 8.6.6.
